Hair of the blond gladiareix werre more yellow than blond. I've corrected that; but still it's the acrylic base...And speaking about base, that one is finished and ready for the placement of those splendid little womens

Today I've paint the loin cloth of my Nubian, using three tones of green. I've also painted another gladiatrix with the Abteilung 502 Flesh set "as is" but I'm unhappy with the result, the flesh is too light. I will repaint the figure but mixing the paints together...

Time to resume the work here during all that time I have read many articles and books about figure painting; hesitating between acrylic and oil paints.One of my last acquisition was the AK book about painting figures with two sets of acrylic paints.Result can be good for some experts, but not for me... And the paint is matt... Real flesh and skin is not matt.So, after having tried those paints on the nymphs... Well... I'm busy to remove the paint (bath of methanol) and I will use oil paints.For the little gladiatrixes; I've painted with Abteilung 502 oil paints "Flesh set" the three Eurasian ones.There are placed on the base but it's just for the photo of course; lot of painting works remain to be done...
